With a so-called cryo plasma-FIB (Plasma Focused Ion Beam) scanning electron microscope with nanomanipulator, Goethe University in Frankfurt (Germany) is expanding its research infrastructure with a ...

In a below-ground lab off Fitch Street, Maggie Blanchard is working with fellow SCSU students to study how fuel cells degrade -- and to help keep Connecticut on the cutting edge of "quantum." On ...

(a) A scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the nanoneedle probe used for the measurements. (b) Elasticity map of a 1 µm × 1 µm area on the nuclear surface, showing the change in elasticity ...

The FEI 200kV Titan Themis Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (STEM) is a scanning transmission electron microscope with several key capabilities. This microscope positions Michigan Tech ...

Felipe Rivera, director of the microscopy facility at BYU, stands in front of one of the university’s new transmission electron microscopes, which will allow undergraduate students to capture 3D ...

If you want to build semiconductors at home, it seems like the best place to start might be to find a used scanning electron microscope on eBay. At least that’s how [Peter Bosch] kicked off his ...

Since the first transmission electron microscope was sold in 1935, microscopes that use electrons--rather than light waves--to image objects have brought into focus levels of detail that were ...

New NE-AFM method measures nuclear stiffness in living cells. It shows cancer nuclei change softness with chromatin and environment, aiding diagnosis and treatment. By employing a technique called ...
